***** TWO DAYS BEFORE MAY DAY -- NIGHTTIME *****
*** Checking Out the Costumes ***
Brad and Harmony made quick work of dinner, during which they reminisced about their childhood together. Then Brad talked a bit about college and how much he had missed her, and she filled him in on her role-playing interests and how much she had missed him.
"So what do you want to do tonight?" she said, clearing the dishes.
"I thought you were the entertainment director. Why don't we build a fire in the fireplace and just read together?"
"That sounds lame."
"Okay then, maybe there are some board games somewhere." He started filling up the sink to wash the dishes. "Cottages always have board games."
"Hey wait. I know. That room upstairs that Mistress Lilin showed me is filled with costumes. We should try some on. Maybe we can figure a new angle for your LARP scenario."
He wasn't too sure about that idea, but she looked pretty excited about it. "Okay," he replied, "but I'm not putting on that incubus costume again."
"Why?" Slinking up to him, she fondled his ass cheek. "I liked your little flappy skirt."
"Hey, no touching." He swatted at her hand. "My loincloth? No ma'am, you've seen enough of my body today."
"I'll say," she said as she skipped out the door. "I'm going to go see what they've got."
Finding the dish rack and a pot scrubber, he got to work. He was happy that she was happy. Maybe she's right about their situation. Crazy things had happened, but everything was quiet now. Maybe they didn't need to rush home yet.
After a bit, his sister cleared her throat to announce herself at the door. Dressed in a white, floor-length gown, she had on a long, blonde wig with a crown of plastic wildflowers, and poking through the wig were a couple of pointed ears. She looked remarkably like she could be Uriel's daughter.
"
Suilad
," she said in what sounded like Swedish to him. "
I eneth nîn Aerin
." Slowly flapping her arms up and down, she showed off the filmy material of her sleeves, which wafted in the air as her arms fluttered.
"What the hell was that you said?" he asked as he gazed at her, dishwater dripping off his hands onto the floor. Seeing her dressed like that gave him a flashback of Uriel, and it got him wondering if Uriel was really just a cosplayer. Maybe everything that is going on is indeed just an elaborate LARP experience.
"I was just greeting you in elvish. I told you that my name is Aerin."
"Elvish? That's pretty nerdy," he said, thinking for a moment that maybe Harmony, dressed as an elf, could confront the neighbours. Show them that he wasn't fooled by their role-playing ruse. Maybe it could be a Scooby Doo moment. Or maybe, that's what they wanted them to do—a LARP within a LARP. Or maybe he was just overthinking this. He shook his head.
His sister stepped into the light. The gown's material was light and translucent all over, not just in the sleeves. He could see the outline of her little body underneath. Her areolas came into view as dark circles.
"Whoa," he said. "You might want to put some underclothes on."
"You shouldn't be noticing that, pervy bro." She twirled around, letting the gown's sleeves and hem sweep through the air as she spun. Through the material, he could see the curves of her bum and breasts and the shadowy clefts of her bum and pussy. He was ashamed by how aroused he was getting.
"Elves don't wear underclothes," she said as she spun. "They're one with nature."
At the end of her twirl, she bumped against him with a giggle. Feeling uncomfortable, he retreated, and grinning, she followed him until he backed into the kitchen counter. She pressed against him, standing between his legs, smiling at how uneasy she was making him.
"So do I look like Uriel, the sex-slave elf?" She rested her hands on his stomach.
"As a matter of fact, you do."
"Uh-huh. The one that's imprisoned next door? The one that you're not making up at all?" she chided him, pulling up his t-shirt to slide her hands underneath. "So do you want me to see if I can find a leash upstairs?" She slid her hands up his chest. "Is that the kind of role-playing you want to do tonight?"
"Don't screw around, sis." He pushed her back. "Isn't there something else you can put on? Something more modest?"
"Okay," she huffed. "But it's mostly bikinis and thongs and loincloths up there, so I can't promise you modesty. Come help me look."
"Let me finish, and then I'll be up." He hoped that he wasn't about to suffer a night of teasing. Watching her little bum jiggle under her gown as she went out the door, he started to stiffen.
Just as he finished, she called out from upstairs that she was ready. He climbed the stairs with some trepidation. She seemed determined to act out tonight, but he was curious about what was in that room.
"Arrr!" she cried as he opened the door. Wielding a prop longsword with both hands, she took a stance as if to strike him, causing him to jump back. "I am Brumhilde, queen of the people of the north." Shockingly, she had on an open-weave chainmail outfit—halter top, miniskirt, and bonnet—and nothing else but skin.
"Good god!" he exclaimed, seeing her nipples poking through the links in the mail and her pussy lips peeking at him from behind the open weave. "Put something on under that!" He held his hands out in front of him to shield his eyes.
"I know, right?" She pulled out on her halter top. "The metal loops keep catching on my nipples."
"How is this modest? Are you trying to provoke me?"
"Oh, you're too smart for me." Giggling, she teased the tip of her sword on the front of his pants, poking at his erection. "I think it's working too."
"I'm leaving."
"No, don't go. Help me find something else."
Probably a good idea. He needed to assert some control, apparently. As she ducked behind a rack of costumes, he entered the room.
The converted bedroom was filled with costumes hanging on racks, on the walls, and in the closet. His sister had been correct about how skimpy they all were. He was forming a conclusion about the type of role-playing events Roxanne was running here. Roxanne's and Phoebe's seductions fell into context now.
"Hey, they have other types of costumes back here," she said behind a couple of racks in the back. Appearing around the end of a rack, she had replaced her chainmail bonnet with a nurse's cap and was holding a short nurse's uniform in front of her.
"Oh no."
